ok i need to clean the motor to see that plate but in the door jam it says 3JJ-L XXXX which i think means it was made in st.louis missouri in 1951 the model series is Fleetline special/ styline special and it was built in december.
but i dont know where the VIN on the title came from.
it did have the body by Fisher blue/white interior

But look how solid the body is. From what you can see in the pictures, there are no rust holes. Put a new motor in if you the old one can't be fixed, coat of paint, and it's all set!
